Re^4: Excel To Tab Delimited using Spreadsheet::ParseExcel

I removed 3 lines from the script and it is working. The first 2 -

$value =~ s/^\s+//;
$value =~ s/\s+$//;
[download]

, I understand, strips off spaces from beginning and end. The third line I removed

$value = " " if $value ne "0" && !$value;
[download]

, what does that do? I wanted to ensure I did not remove a line that 'should' be in there.

`$value = " " if $value ne "0" && !$value;` what does that do? The code means: Set `$value` to `" "` if `"$value"` is something other than the string `"0"` (Equality Operators) and also `$value` is false (Truth and Falsehood).	[reply] [d/l] [select]
